He and his wife were waiting for their lawyer when it happened. Méndez, who is undocumented but working to adjust his status, was taken to an undisclosed location. His wife, Marilú—an asylum recipient—had petitioned for him. They have one child.

According to Marilú, they had just left home when unfamiliar cars appeared. Moments later, three vehicles boxed them in. Armed men in green vests ordered them out. No names. No badges.
